Travel routes
If you look at the daily distances traveled, it turns out that these are journeys to work, to the shops or to the nearest shopping center. A study has shown that vehicles are only driven for 2.45 hours a day.
This means that most people's vehicles are stationary for 21.55 hours.
The average distance to the workplace is approx. 18.6 km. The use of an electric vehicle would make sense here.
Due to the relatively low energy requirement for long-term charging, Mehler charge points can be
can also be integrated into the existing e-supply networks of grid operators!
As everyday vehicles are stationary for 90% of the time, long-term charging is completely sufficient.
In addition, gentle charging would protect the battery and increase its service life.
The e-vehicles on the market, such as scooters, bicycles, scooters, motorcycles, cars and special vehicles, are designed for long-term charging.

Charging mode 1, 2
Charging socket according to IEC 62196 32A 400VAC
3.6kW, 11kW, 22kW, 43kW AC fast charging
Charging mode 3
Mode 1
Charging with alternating current (AC) at a
standard national or CEE socket.
No communication between the energy supply point (socket) and the vehicle.
The e-vehicle is connected to the AC grid
1-phase at the CEE socket
(max. rated current 16A).
An external charger with different plugs is usually used on the vehicle side. The fuse protection is in accordance with the relevant national regulations.
This charging mode is mainly used for
e-bikes and e-scooters.
Mode 2
Like Mode 1, but with an "in-cable control box" in the charging cable.
This connects an electric vehicle that is usually charged under Mode 3, to a standard national or CEE socket. Communication between ICCB and vehicle
This control box is used for safety and communication between the control box and the vehicle.
The fuse protection complies with the relevant national regulations.
Mode 3
Charging with alternating current (AC) can only be carried out on a dedicated Type 2, Type 3 or a Mode 3 charging cable permanently connected to the installation.
Communication between the energy output point
(socket) and vehicle.
The e-vehicle is connected to the AC grid
(1- or 3-phase).
A type 2 socket coupling is used on the vehicle side and a type 2 plug on the charging socket.
Here, 1-phase up to 32A and 3-phase up to 63A are possible. The fuse protection complies with the relevant national regulations.
Mode 4
Charging with direct current (DC) for "fast charging".
Communication between charging station and vehicle.
